Default Sealing the rubber seal of a light

Is there a special product I have to use If I want to watertight the seal on lights? Could I simply just use superglue? It's going to be for my rock lights.

Probably some hi temp silicone sealant would work. DAP makes some that you can probably pick up at a home store.

Thanks scouter, hey I remembered you also installed the Walmart rock lights, did they corrode after you put the sealant?

Foolish me never put any on and the rubber seal cracked and contacts corroded badly. Next set, regardless of make, will get some sealant.
